Cycle 1 Round 4 -- Results

This is the official announcement of results for G4M's Next Top Model Cycle 1 Round 4.

* * * *

Hi contestants! Welcome to the 4th elimination night of G4M's Next Top Model, Cycle 1.

This week your challenge was to submit a photo of yourself that best represented our theme for Round 4: "Sizzling Summer Days". We wanted you to show us how the summer heat was affecting you.

The idea behind the theme was for the models to come up with a pic that captured the essence of summer. We wanted to see the heat emanate from the photo; we wanted the models to sizzle. At the same time, the mood had to be relaxed. Summertime is all about going with the flow.

Again, this was another week of mixed results. Most of you did have relaxed photos, but so much so that we no longer felt any heat. As a model, the heat has to come from within, and you have to be able to translate that on to the photo. If you can't do that, no amount of photoshopping is going to be able to help you.

* * * *

In my hand I hold 4 pictures, and these pictures represent the 4 men who will be continuing on the journey towards becoming G4M's Next Top Model.

1 of you will be eliminated...

I will call only 4 names. The first name I will call is the winner of this round -- our Coverboy of the Week.

JUDE

You are G4M's Next Top Model Cycle 1 Round 4's Coverboy of the Week!

The judges agreed that this was definitely the hottest pic this round. You were oozing with the sensuality of summer, and you proved that good models don't need photoshop.

Congratulations. You are still in the running towards becoming G4M's Next Top Model...

3 more names...

You worked the summer theme, but you need to be careful not to look like you're having difficulty, even in an action pic. There's a difference between looking tense and looking intense.

Congratulations. You are still in the running towards becoming G4M's Next Top Model...

A K I
The judges weren't too sure about this pic. On one hand, you did manage to show the relaxed nature of summer, but on the other hand the angles in this pic weren't flattering. We all have our flaws, but there's a problem when the angle creates a flaw that isn't really there.

Congratulations. You are still in the running towards becoming G4M's Next Top Model...

And that means...

bakekong8 and br@t, you're both in the bottom 2.

The judges weren't impressed with either of you.

bakekong8 -- The judges aren't seeing any originality in your expressions. Week after week, you have the same angles, the same emotions. To be a Top Model, you need to show a range of what you can do. You can't afford to be stuck with one look, especially when the stakes are high. To top it all off, this photo was over-edited.

br@t -- The potential they saw in you when the competition started just doesn't seem to be there anymore. The judges have given you many chances to prove yourself, and week after week they've been disappointed. They're questioning if it's worth giving you another chance.

= = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = =
I have 2 men before me... 2 talented men who were not able to translate their talent on to their pics. I will only call 1 name. The model I do not call must immediately return to his house, pack his things, and leave the competition...

br@t

You're hanging by a thread. The judges see potential, but you need to prove that you deserve the chances you've been given. Don't take this opportunity for granted.

Congratulations. You are still in the running towards becoming G4M's Next Top Model.

bakekong8, that means you've been eliminated.

We hope that you've learned from this experience, and we wish you luck in your future career. Thank you for joining G4M's Next Top Model, Cycle 1.
